C29 Second Uncle Gambler

Three hundred taels?

Tao Xiaozui couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. It would cost more than three hundred taels of silver to open another shop. Fortunately, Mr. Fang would give her another three hundred taels of silver if she learned the recipe.

"This is not a small amount. Dad, I have other plans. You can open a shop first!"

After waiting for Ye Yuan and Young Master Zhou to eat with the father and daughter, Tao Laosan brought Ye Yuan to the shop, leaving Tao Xiaosu and Young Master Zhou behind to give them a chance.

"I heard from Miss Tao that you have other plans, do you have any new ideas?"

After all, it is better to teach a person how to fish than to teach a person how to fish!

"I want to go to the blacksmith shop and make a few handcarts and ask a few beggars to help pull the carts. The two pieces earned will be theirs. What I earn is the money I collect from them every month."

When she said so, Master Zhou suddenly realized something. He didn't know there was such a way to earn money. They didn't even need to open a shop. As long as they could arrange the job, they wouldn't be able to do anything.

"That is a good idea. It is really good."

Tao Xiaozui had just entered the shop when she saw that there were many people queuing up outside the shop to buy sesame cakes. Master Zhou was surprised to see that the business in the shop was so good.

"I didn't think that the business in the shop would be so good. It seems that Miss Tao's contribution is not small."

Tao Xiaosui saw that the time was just right, and Ye Yuan had just finished his work.

"Yes, you look after the things in the pot. I will go outside and take a look."

When Ye Yuan walked out, he saw Master Zhou following behind Tao Xiao-Su like a tail that he couldn't get rid of. However, he didn't know what to do.

He took the rice crust out and turned around to see Master Zhou. He couldn't help but feel awkward.

"Master Zhou, go and sit down! You will be busy with your work for the entire day. If you follow me like this, it will be inconvenient for you."

It was just past noon, and Tao Laosan, who had gone out to look at the store for the entire morning, returned. He excitedly told Tao Xiaosu.

"Xiaotu, I have my eyes on a store that can't be any better. It's on the street next to our store."

Tao Xiao Su didn't know much about shops. As long as Third Brother Tao liked it, she would nod her head, "As long as Daddy likes it, then make the preparations!"

Before Tao Xiaozui walked into the kitchen, she saw Ye Yuan. Remembering that Mr. Fang needed someone to teach him skills, she handed the task to Ye Yuan.

"Ye Yuan, go to Mr. Fang's shop later and teach them the skills until they learn them."

As soon as he said this, Mr. Fang came to Tao Xiaozui's door and asked, "Why didn't you tell me that the food in your shop was for the customers yesterday?"

"Miss Tao, when we signed the contract, we agreed to tell you in advance."

Tao Xiaozui knocked on her own head and remembered that what happened yesterday was too sudden, and Tao Xiaozui was just a temporary solution. She didn't expect Mr. Fang to catch her by surprise.

"Mr. Fang, I'm really sorry. Yesterday, a customer ate a bug in our sesame seed cake and insisted on taking me to see the officials. When the customers in this shop heard his shout, no one dared to buy our sesame seed cake, so I had to give it away."

While talking, Tao Xiaozui invited Mr. Fang to sit down. Mr. Fang asked her worriedly, "What happened after that? Of course, you guys didn't pay attention to the bugs in the sesame seed cakes."

"After I was dragged to the government, I thought that there must be something wrong with this matter. After some evidence, I found out that he was framing us, and this matter was solved."

"It was because it happened too suddenly that I forgot to tell you about it. Please forgive me, Mr. Fang."

Mr. Fang was a reasonable person. Since he hadn't learned Tao Xiaozui's recipe yet, he came to Tao Xiaozui to teach him.

"By the way, we have the formula, but our master has tried it before, and he still feels that it is not perfect enough. So, I came to your shop to learn from you."

Tao Xiaosu called Ye Yuan and handed Mr. Fang over to him. "In the next few days, you must teach Mr. Fang."

Then, Tao Xiaosu took the blueprints that she had drawn overnight to the blacksmith shop and explained them to the blacksmith. The blacksmith finally understood what she meant.

"What I want to do is to manually pull the cart, so this place must not be separated..."

Walking on the street after leaving the blacksmith shop, Tao Xiaotu accidentally saw a snack shop that was especially interesting. It was actually called the Tao Family's snack shop, and was just one word away from the Tao Family's snack shop.

"They're really going all out to split our business."

Just as he was walking on the street, he saw Tao Lao Er walk out of the casino, followed by a few fierce-looking people.

"Tao Lao Er, return the money!"

"If you don't pay up today, don't even think about leaving."

Tao Xiaosui tried her best to stand to the side so that he wouldn't see her. However, no matter how much Tao Xiaosui ran, he still ended up bumping into Tao Xiaosui.

"Aiyo!"

Tao Xiaosui smiled obediently and called out to him, "Second Uncle."

Second Brother Tao acted as if he had seen the Goddess of Mercy. He held Tao Xiaosu's hand and said, "Aiya, my good niece, I've finally seen you. Those people at the back want to kill me, help me block them."

Before Tao Xiaozui could speak, he had already run five meters away.

"The debt you owe them has nothing to do with me. I just want to block it for you, but I'm a weak girl, no one can block me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared. Tao Xiaosui had just turned her head when the men stared at her and told her, "Second brother Tao owes us fifty taels of silver. We have to make him pay us back before we can leave."

Tao Xiaotu did not care about what they said and said, "You can go find whoever owes you money. Why are you telling me this?"

Knowing that these people were not to be trifled with, Tao Xiaosu turned around and was about to leave when she was unexpectedly dragged back.

"We recognize you. You are his niece, the daughter of Tao Laosan from the Tao family's shop. Since you are relatives and he ran away, you have to pay him back."

It wasn't easy for Tao Xiaosui to earn a bit of money, so she wouldn't spend it in such a place.

"I won't pay him back. If you are not convinced, then take me to the official. I want to see if the county magistrate will let me, his niece, pay his debts."

The few of them were not afraid of mentioning the government at all. Seeing that Tao Xiaosu was so stubborn, some of them started to search for money on her. Before long, they found the money bag on her.

"Found it, found it..."

"Boss, look, there's a lot of money in her money bag!"

"Looks like the Tao family's shop has earned quite a bit of money these past few days. Just treat the extra as a tribute to us."
